Triad DJ Profile
Stage name: DJ Rob Reeves. “It was
given to me at birth. I was very young at
the time of my birth, so I really didn’t have
a choice.”
Website: www.myspace.com/djrobreeves,

Playlist: “I love all types of music, but I
prefer to play electro and progressive house
with a twist of breakbeat.
Equipment: Two Pioneer CDJ 1000’s,
Pioneer DJM 800 mixer and two Mackie
monitors.

from my schedule.”

Got in the game: “I decided to become a DJ when I was about 22. I guess that was
about 10 years ago.”
club called the Warehouse. It was the first of many road trips with Spindicated. In fact, this
booking led me to my next gig in Tennessee for a party thrown inside a Mountain Cave! Those
were the days….”
Why I do it: “I really enjoyed the dance scene in Florida in the late ’90s and I was drawn
into the music quickly. I thought that dancing was the best part, until I realized that providing
the vibe was even better. I bought my first set of techniques and lived in my bedroom for a
good year and a half, before I finally decided to start playing out and here I am now.”
Influences: “I have so many influences as a DJ, so I will just name a few from the
electronic side. Rick Solo with Spindicated Music, Fuzz, Sasha and Digweed, Paul Van Dyk,
Rabbit in the Moon, BT, Icey, DJ X, Crystal Method, Chemical Brothers, Prodigy, Jeffe, Tiesto,
Monk, DJ Rap, Scott Henry and many more.”
Favorite technique: I love the spinback! It is one of the easiest techniques, but also
one of the most effective.
What I listen to: “I pretty much devote all of my spare time to searching for the latest
and greatest tracks online, so I would have to say electro house and breaks.”
Favorite albums: Boston Bruins — I Will Be Free, BT — Godspeed
I’d like to add: “My affiliates are Spindicated Music, Elite Management, Reddoor
Entertainment and King of Clubs.”
